WTF??<\/p>\n It’s because “Perl is an interpreted language, and you cannot define a task priority or a maximum CPU usage value when you run a Perl program” (thanks Devx.com<\/a>!). You have to start the command first.<\/p>\n So the finished code should look like this: Try to run it again, works when just opening the BAT file.
